The purpose of Christchurch Netball Centre is to empower people of all ages and abilities through quality experiences in participation and volunteering.

To foster connection and a sense of belonging, we bring together nearly 600 teams across two key venues: Ngā Puna Wai and Hagley Park.

Our Netball Sports Centre at Ngā Puna Wai also welcomes bookings from other groups, sports and businesses who wish to utilise the wooden sprung courts (10 in total), mezzanine function area and highly versatile meeting space. Email bookings@cnc.org.nz to learn more.

We are in the business of breaking down barriers - making sure that quality experiences as volunteers and participants are accessible to all.

We are incredibly grateful to our community of partners, who are committed to healthier, thriving communities.

Good Sports | Setting the example

We are advocates for ensuring tamariki and rangatahi have positive experiences in sport from an early age. We endorse Good Sports and recommend this resource for all whānau, kura and clubs. We work to create inclusive, welcoming environments where people of all ages and abilities can thrive.
